Chapter 307: Value

"Quiet! Quiet!" At this moment, the captain had already walked out.

The passenger ship was now in complete chaos; in front of pirates, neither money nor even life could be guaranteed.

"This is the 'Golden Dream'!" The captain's voice seemed to possess a certain majesty, as well as a convincing power, causing everyone to quiet down.

The reputation of the "Golden Dream" on the sea was not bad; compared to pirates, they were more like treasure hunters of the sea, and under normal circumstances, they would not take action against ships.

"Is this the flagship of the 'Iceberg Admiral'?" Quite a few bold people even remained on the deck to look.

Meanwhile, Klein and the others had already left the passenger ship, rowing that small boat to gradually approach the "Golden Dream".

"Who exactly are you?" This was a man wearing a black cloak, appearing to be around thirty years old, with scorched-yellow eyebrows and deep blue eyes; he looked at Klein and the others vigilantly.

Someone who could make the captain detour to pick them up definitely wasn't simple, and she had even sent him down to welcome them!

"And you are?" Klein looked at this man, knowing that this was the legendary pirate.

Aside from being dressed quite fashionably, he was actually quite clean...

"'Flaming' Danitz! The fourth mate of the 'Golden Dream'! The most quick-witted pirate under the captain!" Danitz raised an eyebrow, looking at Klein and the others with a provocative gaze.

I'm certain the last part is a lie... Klein curled the corner of his mouth, then introduced himself, saying only that he was a friend of the "Iceberg Admiral" Edwina Edwards, as had been agreed upon.

And "Flaming", 3,000 pounds... Klein's eyes changed.

Danitz looked at Klein, Leonard, and Maric vigilantly, gave a light snort, and said nothing more.

Not long after, their group boarded the deck of the "Golden Dream" and saw the "Iceberg Admiral" standing by the gunwale.

This was a lady with an outstanding appearance, her face shaped like a goose egg, with a high bridge of the nose, thin lips, and light blue eyes that were like clear springs.

"Good afternoon." This "Iceberg Admiral" looked at Klein and the others and nodded slightly.

"Good afternoon." Klein and the others all curiously sized up this pirate admiral and bowed slightly.

"Let's talk in detail in the captain's cabin." Edwina brought the few guests to the captain's cabin, and only then did the pirates behind them start to make a racket.

"Who exactly are they!?" a pirate shouted.

"Who knows?"

"Why don't you go ask the captain?" The pirates' voices stopped abruptly; the captain's majesty could not be provoked!

Inside the captain's cabin, the host and guests were seated, and Edwina looked at the four people before her and asked, "Are you from the Evernight Church, or the Dream Sect?"

"The Dream Sect," Klein replied.

"..." Edwina was silent for a moment, looked at Klein and the others, and asked very seriously.

"Is there a 'Dream' Pathway Beyonder among you? I am very curious about the 'Dream' Pathway; if I want to understand it, what price do I need to pay?"

Klein blinked, his mouth slightly agape, unable to speak; this was a development he hadn't thought of—weren't they supposed to be discussing the Blood Sect?

Hearing Edwina's question, Leonard's gaze drifted inadvertently toward Klein, a movement captured by this sharp pirate admiral, who stared at Klein with burning eyes.

Klein:...

"Don't worry, it's just superficial research, regarding the manifestation of Beyonder abilities, it won't go deep into your secrets, and we can sign a relevant contract." Edwina spoke very seriously, completely like a scholar thirsting for knowledge.

And Klein did not sense any danger; this might truly mean that she was just a pirate admiral whose thirst for knowledge outweighed her church mission.

Worthy of being a "Mystic Master" of the "Reader" Pathway.

"To express my sincerity, I can first take you to visit my collection room." Klein and the others, who hadn't been sitting for three minutes, were taken to the collection room by this knowledge-thirsty pirate admiral.

"Everything inside here is items of great collection value that I have gathered on the sea for many years." When Edwina spoke of her collection, her tone finally became more normal.

Is this showing off... Klein had this feeling; hmm, this is a very typical characteristic of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom.

"As long as you agree, you can choose any three items from here." Edwina looked at Klein.

"This is the 'Death Key', which the 'Admiral of Blood' once wanted to buy for 5,000 pounds, but I didn't agree." Edwina pointed to a huge black iron key and said.

This was one of the most distinctive legends on the sea recently.

"According to my research, this may involve the legendary 'Giant King's Court', and its value is far more than 5,000 pounds."

The first collection item shocked everyone.

"Are pirate admirals all this wealthy?" Leonard widened his eyes slightly.

"Old man, is this thing real?" he asked in his heart.

"... It is." Pallez Zoroast's tone was also a bit more solemn.

"These are Dream Gold Coins, the oldest version, salvaged from an underwater shipwreck from the Third Epoch."

That was a small pile of Dream Gold Coins, numbering about three hundred or so, and the oldest Dream Gold Coins were worth far more than current gold coins.

This was an item whose value could be felt more intuitively.

The most critical thing was that this item was a necessity for continuing on the "Dream" Pathway... Klein's Adam's apple bobbed.

"... Groselle's Travels," Edwina's tone paused, "I haven't figured out its specific utility yet, but its value will not be less than 8,000 pounds."

"This is..."

The various collections were dazzling; whether it was Klein and Leonard, who came from the Orthodox Church, or Sharon and Maric, who had an Angel teacher, they all felt shocked.

This was wealthier than the Chanis Gate of the Tingen Evernight Church.

"Why don't you just give in." Leonard walked to Klein's side and signaled with his eyes.

"..." Klein forcibly controlled his gaze from falling on the Death Key.

He had heard "Little Sun" mention the Giant King's Court at the Tarot Club; if this thing was real, its value was simply immeasurable.

And he was also very interested in that pile of Dream Gold Coins and that Groselle's Travels.

"Exactly three items..." Klein had even already made his choice.

"Stop!" Klein halted his thoughts, looked at Edwina, and said, "I cannot... agree to this immediately."

Klein left some room for maneuver; as for whether he could reveal information about the "Dream" Pathway, it required Bishop Chumen to make the decision.

"... Fine." Edwina looked at Klein and nodded slowly; this time, her reason had truly returned.

"But my conditions will never change," she added, and after that, the group returned to the captain's cabin to talk about the Blood Sect.
